Today we venture into what some would call an “Unknown Known”we “know” the person we are about to introduce. In all actuallity we have known him for a long time, he is in fact a mainstay in our industry. We are talking about Friedjof Feye, a photographer you might know. But even if you don’t, his work has been published in almost all skate magazines that are currently active and some that are but currently innactive. We also “know” that Friedjof and André Gerlich collaborated on making a small publication connected to the content you see below. One last “know” is that we are launching this as an continuous column of which Friedjof is the main protagonist (even if he, himself, is never himself seen). But what we don’t know is who will be the next subject(s), where this next column will take place and lastly what form other than this column it will take. To be fair, that is also a big part of the fun in following these things. Enjoy!

The first time I met André was in Berlin at Hirschi’s place years ago (maybe 7)… During one night, he was totally weed green and I was totally red drunk and we had a good talk regarding Life expectations, Skateboarding and so on…
By my blurry memories (from this night) I remember the feeling that André was a true guy and going to his own legit path. The respect has been built and I kept to my mind he has the ANTIZ profile.
Since then I started to keep an eye on André’s evolment in our close skateboarding world. Originality, creativity, spot selection, style, a huge bag of tricks, and integrity. This is the recipe ! After receiving the approval of the entire ANTIZ family, it was time to travel together. In two trips André found his marks and became a masterpiece in the team. It is an example of gentleness, balance of life and perseverance. André deserves more than he has, he’s an underdog, underated and it’s like fine wine the older he gets the better it is.
This is only the beginning.

André is a 105 x 148mm risography zine made from just a single sheet of paper. Cut and folded by hand. Limited to 50 pieces.
Andre Gerlich is now on Antiz Skateboards and French Fred put this video together to celebrate the addition and that sounds like a pretty good start to us. CLICK HERE to rewatch his Place Presents from exactly one year ago.
We would like to say Fuck You Dan Schulz, Fuck you for making us miss Wassertorplatz and Fuck you for posting this right when the weather is getting good! Lord knows what we would give for a nice little WTP session, maybe we should drive by and pour one out R.I.P.
On the other hand, We love you, Dan! We love you because you gave us some good and new Roland Hirsch footy! Hirschi’s footy can make you thirsty, it can make you stop by the corner store to get beer on the way to work, it can turn you into Dustin Dollin when you really want to be Andrew Reynolds. You catch my drift watch this thing!
Finally, Dan Schulz’s Berlin based independent skate film Oh Snap is going to be premiered on December 3rd. Here is the official trailer, which provides a good foretaste of what is to come! Oh Snap!
Featuring Pascal Reif, Justin Sommer, Joscha Aicher, André Gerlich, Tim Bornemeier, Quirin Staudt, Valentin Ott, Patrick Rogalski, Ilja Judizki, Michel Funke, Philipp Oehmige, Farid Ulrich, Danny Goodman, Roland Hirsch and Daniel Ledermann.

“Ich hab noch einen Koffer in Berlin” sagte Marlene Dietrich schon vor geraumer Zeit. Knapp 60 Jahre später rollen an den Wochenenden Unmengen von Koffern in Berlin ein und aus. Deshalb sind in dieser Montage, die teils aus frischen, teils aus Second Angles und ungesehener B-Roll besteht, viele Leute, die gerne zu Besuch sind bei uns in der Hauptstadt. Patrick Rogalski, Farid Ulrich, Matthias Janota, Helder Lima, Andre Gerlich, Pascal Reif, Nahuell Kirchhoff und weitere bekannte Gesichter geben sich die Ehre an mehr und weniger bekannten Spots der Partymetropole. Und mit Jimmy Hendrix als Soundtrack ist der Clip ein rundes Ding.
